Schrodenger's Cat. . .

(Schrödinger's Cat. . .)

It can be dangerous when one investigates the fundamentals of Nature. Even with the most precise mathematics, research can arrive at conclusions that seem contradictory. How could both "A" and "B" be right when they are completely oppositional phenomena ? This is a technical term in quantum physics called quantum supposition. That means that some particle can exist in two opposite states simultaneously, but which state will only be determined when the particle is observed.


German physicist Erwin Schrödinger devised a "thought experiment." Say there is a closed box with a cat inside. Also inside is a piece of highly radioactive material. Logically speaking, the assumption would be that the cat would already be dead, or, perhaps not yet. One would not know unless he or she opens the box, meaning the observation has been made and see the cat is in fact dead. No more litter box.


Donald Trump is the cat in the box. The included material in this case would be the same factors that prevented his re-election two years ago that have been described over the months. However, the linchpin, President Biden, has been weakened for the same reasons that his replacement is being considered. The impeachment. The UAW strike. Failures in Bidenomics or the ability to curb inflation, after causing it. The border have all contributed to dulling Biden. He had been has been seen a sure thing for another term because the GOP challenger was most likely to be Trump and he could again be easily beaten. That is now being called into question.


But, if the original theory of the case persists, then Biden would consistently be polling ahead of his predecessor. Not only is Trump tied with Biden, but he seems ahead in certain state polls. Trump is still doing rallies. He is giving interviews. He has increased his lead over other GOP contenders. It is true that 2024 is more than a year out. That is an eternity in politics. Anything can happen.


That all being said, there is still the opinion that Trump would still not prevail. Regardless of who is made the Democrat standard bearer, Democrats still have their voting regime that could put anybody in Office. So, as Trump would say again, things are still rigged. That is still because they have to be. But, if one wants to know how things end ?


Open the box.

Siege Of The Alamo

(Siege Of The Alamo) Any visitor to Downtown San Antonio will recognize the City's most famous landmark, the Alamo. An old Spanish mission that means "Cottonwood" in English was the site where the likes of Jim Bowie, William Barrett Travis and Davy Crockett and about another 185 Texians defended the Mission and its compound for thirteen days against the Army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana and his 5,000 troops. The garrison was finally reduced on March 6, 1836. However, the Texian defeat at the Alamo and another one at Goliad, bought time for General Sam Houston time to fall back and then face Santa Ana at San Jacinto. There, Houston's army surprised the Mexicans and yelling "Remember the Alamo, Remember Goliad !" all but wiped out the Mexican force. Santa Ana was captured and was forced to recognize the Republic of Texas. Which is now the State of Texas and, like 1836 Texas War of Independence, there is a new invasion from Mexico. Not the armed body o

TEQUILA !

(TEQUILA !) Happy Cinco de Mayo or May 5th. One can hope that a lot of you out there are awash in inebriation, seeking to mainline tequila shots or enjoying a nice margarita on the patio. Or, in other words, relax. Take a breath. De-compress. May 5th as it happens is the anniversary of Mexico's victory over French "occupation" of Mexico by Emperor Maximillian, brother to Austrian monarch Maria Theresa in what has been called the Battle of Puebla. The reason France was in Mexico in the first place was that Mexico, after the Mexican-American War and a more civil conflict called the Reform War, had bankrupted Mexico City. Mexican President at the time was Benito Juarez, who repudiated all foreign debt, of which France, Spain, and the United Kingdom were all major holders. A naval expedition was dispatched to Veracruz and France's Napoleon III thought it would be a good idea to establish a French "empire" in Mexico. But, on May 5th, 1862, in the aforementioned B

Intended Consequences

(Intended Consequences) For those Readers who live in the Tri-State area, who had the earthquake this morning, just be still.  There is a postulate called the Law of Un-Intended Consequences. Basically, it says that even with the best intentions, negative results sometimes happen. However, there are also instances when a negative result is precisely the desired outcome. Like with the Israel- Hamas war where the Biden Administration continues to press for an all but unilateral ceasefire on the part of Israel. In California, the new $20/HR minimum wage is wreaking havoc on the fast food industry. And finally, after depleting the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, oil has now become too expensive. How many times must the Biden Administration think it can influence Israeli affairs ? How many times must Israel ignore it. Threats from the President have become redundant at this point but is Biden really prepared to cut Israel loose ? In the middle of the greatest crisis Israel is facing since the
